<div><p>Carb cycling’s roots are in bodybuilding. But it’s easy enough for any average Joe, which is perhaps why it’s gone mainstream. When you cycle your carb intake, you vary how many carbs you eat throughout the week, with some days being low-carb (2½ to 5 servings) and others high-carb (10 to 20 servings). The thinking is that your low-carb days put you in a fat-burning state and eating high-carb boosts your metabolism. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/carb_cycling_to_lose_weight#commentsDiet BlogBrierley Wright, M.S., R.D.DietHealthDiet, Nutrition & Health - Weight Loss & Diet PlansMon, 29 Jun 2015 17:41:51 +0000kurtschulitz286043 at http://www.eatingwell.com5 Tricks to Steal from the Paleo Diethttp://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/5_tricks_to_steal_from_the_paleo_diet

<div><p>A common reason people avoid gluten is to lose weight&mdash;an approach about 13 million people have taken, far overshadowing gluten avoidance for health issues.</p>
<p>To remove gluten from your diet, you have to stop eating wheat and foods that contain it, such as bread, pasta, cereal and crackers, which are all relatively rich in calories. </p>
<p>If you replace them with foods like fruit, vegetables and lean meats, you may naturally eat fewer calories and lose weight. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/will_a_gluten_free_diet_help_you_lose_weight#commentsDiet BlogDietSamuel FromartzWeight lossMultimedia & Tools - BlogsFri, 13 Feb 2015 21:31:03 +0000suzie.qu_559209285164 at http://www.eatingwell.comCould My Fitbit Make Me Fat?http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/could_my_fitbit_make_me_fat

<div><p>Ooh, the Fitbit. I’m completely addicted to mine. Thanks to my Fitbit, I’ve discovered I’m a bit of a sloth on nonexercise days. So now I’m the first person in my house to offer to run upstairs and grab whatever anyone needs. More steps!</p>
<p>I say the Fitbit—and other wearable trackers—are so worth it because they make you aware of your activity level (or lack thereof) and motivate you to move more. </p>
<p>There’s science to back me up, too: research shows that tracking your activity and/or being motivated to work out helps shed pounds.</p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/could_my_fitbit_make_me_fat#commentsDiet BlogBrierley Wright, M.S., R.D.DietFitnessHealthWeight lossMultimedia & Tools - BlogsWed, 07 Jan 2015 13:51:06 +0000suzie.qu_559209284850 at http://www.eatingwell.comHow to Eat Your Favorite Foods and Still Lose Weight http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/how_to_eat_your_favorite_foods_and_still_lose_weight

<div><p>If you’re trying to slim down, you might be entirely cutting out some of your favorite (perhaps not-so-healthy) foods—thinking that not eating treats will help you lose weight.</p>
<p>However, restricting foods that you enjoy can actually make you overindulge in them later, potentially undoing all your recent healthy-eating efforts, according to a study published in <em>Proceedings of the National Academy of Science</em>. You might not be successful at losing weight, despite your best intentions.</p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/how_to_eat_your_favorite_foods_and_still_lose_weight#commentsDiet BlogDietHealthLisa D'Agrosa, M.S., R.D.NutritionMultimedia & Tools - BlogsTue, 18 Nov 2014 20:14:56 +0000suzie.qu_559209284473 at http://www.eatingwell.comThe Secret to Diet Success?

<div><p>Research shows your partner can either help you succeed or sabotage your efforts. Here are 3 tips to get—and give—support in your relationship.</p>
<p><h3>Discuss your goals</h3><br />
The first step in almost any diet plan is to make a goal, but it’s equally crucial to talk about those goals with the important people in your life. </p>
<p>If your partner reacts negatively to your new diet, try to find middle ground. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/the_secret_to_diet_success_your_spouse#commentsDiet BlogHealth BlogDietDilia NarduzziFamily mealsFood & health newsHealthWeight lossMultimedia & Tools - BlogsTue, 30 Sep 2014 16:16:19 +0000suzie.qu_559209284113 at http://www.eatingwell.com4 Good Foods to Eat Full-Fathttp://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/health_blog/4_good_foods_to_eat_full_fat

<div><p>Though the low-fat craze has come and gone, many of the beliefs we have about fat are tough to let go of. </p>
<p>Recent research raises new questions about fat and its role in health, particularly when it comes to saturated fat. It’s hard to know what to believe. </p>
<p>It’s true that fat—at 9 calories per gram—has more calories per gram than proteins or carbs (which each have just 4 calories per gram). And trans fats, mostly found in hydrogenated oils, are still considered harmful to our health. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/health_blog/4_good_foods_to_eat_full_fat#commentsDiet BlogHealth BlogDietHealthLisa D'Agrosa, M.S., R.D.NutritionMultimedia & Tools - BlogsWed, 10 Sep 2014 00:56:35 +0000Sarah Hoff283969 at http://www.eatingwell.comHow a High-Protein Breakfast Can Help You Lose Weight http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/how_a_high_protein_breakfast_can_help_you_lose_weight

<div><p>Most Americans get 10 to 15 grams of protein at breakfast, but 30 grams may be the magic number to keep your appetite in check throughout the day and prevent weight gain. New research presented at the Obesity Society’s annual meeting found that women who ate a protein-packed breakfast (30 grams from eggs and sausage) felt more satisfied and ate about 100 calories less at lunch compared to those who ate a low-protein pancake breakfast. A high-protein morning meal also quelled evening snacking (by about 135 calories) in a small study of teenagers. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/how_a_high_protein_breakfast_can_help_you_lose_weight#commentsDiet BlogBreakfastChristopher Mohr, Ph.D., R.D.

<div><p>Popcorn and pretzels&mdash;these are two salty snacks people often reach for if they’re looking for lower-calorie options or just seeking out healthy snack ideas. And with thousands of snacks to choose from, it’s hard to know what snack food is the best pick. We put these two popular snacks head-to-head to find out: this or that? Is it popcorn or pretzels you should reach for in the snacks aisle? </p>
<p><strong>The Winner: Popcorn!</strong> Popcorn triumphed over pretzels for a number of reasons, as Joyce Hendley originally reported for EatingWell. </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/popcorn_vs_pretzels_which_is_a_better_choice_for_a_low_calorie_snack#commentsDiet BlogDietHealthLisa D'Agrosa, M.S., R.D.NutritionThis or ThatMultimedia & Tools - BlogsWed, 23 Jul 2014 16:23:54 +0000suzie.qu_559209283526 at http://www.eatingwell.comIs Thin the Only Way to be Healthy?http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/is_thin_the_only_way_to_be_healthy

<div><p>Whether it is possible to be healthy and heavy has been an ongoing debate among health professionals. And for a while the research seemed to favor being fat <em>and</em> healthy. Last year, for example, a review study of nearly 100 studies, published in the <em>Journal of the American Medical Association</em>, looked at close to 3 million people and found that people who are overweight (defined as a BMI of 25 to 29.9) live longer than normal-weight folks. (Obese people, however, didn’t have a lower risk of premature death.) </p></div>http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/is_thin_the_only_way_to_be_healthy#commentsDiet BlogBrierley Wright, M.S., R.D.DietHealthWeight lossMultimedia & Tools - BlogsTue, 15 Jul 2014 16:31:38 +0000suzie.qu_559209283466 at http://www.eatingwell.com5 Secretly Good-for-You Gas Station Snackshttp://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/5_secretly_good_for_you_gas_station_snacks

<div><p>Summer vacation is here and it’s time to hit the road. Whether you're traveling long-distance or a regular on-the-go snacker, it's worth knowing about the growing variety at lots of quick stops. </p>
<p>Most gas stations, for example, now carry fresh fruit, cut-up veggies and hard-boiled eggs. </p>
<p>While those standards have been around for a while, we went looking for some of the tastier options you can find in a pinch.

If you’re craving something sweet—or salty—but think you can’t have it if you are trying to <a href="http://www.eatingwell.com/blogs/diet_blog/day_8_treat_yourself_occasionally">lose weight</a>, think again! Having a small treat every day may help you stick to your diet.
